Booked this hotel last minute but the owners were very accommodating and extremely helpful. I first communicated by email with them and replies were always prompt. The hotel is extremely well situated for Windermere and Bowness. We also travelled into Kendal for the day. We stayed in the family room and our friends had a double. None of us could... More

The B&B is ideally located between Windermere and Bowness with ample off road parking. The rooms are nicely decorated in a classic style and spotlessly clean. There is a good supply of coffee, tea and biscuits in the rooms, and towels are replaced daily. Helen and Kim made us feel so welcome, providing us with maps, great tips on where... More

Great place to stay. The bedrooms are all en-suite and with TV and hospitality tray. Ours was not the largest but it was spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable bed. There is a pleasant lounge for guests' use, with TV and lots of local info. Wide range of food with fresh fruit, yogurts, cereals and full English breakfast. The owners... More

3 women shared a room at Glencree. Good points: It was very clean, the owners were very friendly and the English breakfast was decent. Bad points: the bathroom shower was no good, water temperature was extremely temperamental and the pressure was so low none of us could wash our hair properly. Also, I had the single bed and it was... More

A very friendly, comfortable place to stay. A home from home. Always clean, and you feel at home, so that you can relax without being too formal. I have been here many times and the welcome and feel is always to the same good standard. The breakfast is excellent and the friendly host always checks to see if you have... More
